		<title>So&#8230;what is it that you do all day?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I can&#8217;t tell you how many times people, including friends ask me what I do all day, implying that I am siting home eating bon-bons and painting my nails. That I have time to get everything done and more and that stayinig home with the kids is an excuse not to work. Well&#8230;Stay-at-Home Mom&#8217;s, Working [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=swimmom.wordpress.com&blog=1954859&post=330&subd=swimmom&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Cut it Out</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I loved the binkie.
I was excited and put at ease when my daughter took to it.
It soothed her when at times I couldn&#8217;t, and keep her pretty much content. But now, I look at the binkie with slight amusement and much despise.  Just like another good &#8216;ol habit, I want to step on it, burn [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=swimmom.wordpress.com&blog=1954859&post=319&subd=swimmom&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Shelf Life</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Do you ever look in the mirror and your ass reveals a side of itself you&#8217;ve never seen before?
The side that seems to resist all the countless lunges, running and working out you&#8217;ve been doing.
I eat healthy, exercise daily and have always been a healthy weigh, my college weight (proudly even after 2 kids), fluctuating [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=swimmom.wordpress.com&blog=1954859&post=315&subd=swimmom&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>2 and counting (hopefully)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If it were up to my husband we would have a small litter, the starting line up of a basketball team or going head to head with The Duggers. He had said he wants 7 kids and I used to think he was exaggerating, just a bit, but I know he is completely serious. You [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=swimmom.wordpress.com&blog=1954859&post=312&subd=swimmom&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>The Bus Ride to Heaven</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some subjects are probably better left untouched, especially when your dealing with a 3 year old, but of course ,a venture into the unknown is always the thing we mothers strive for, right? Maybe not. But I say I won&#8217;t go there and then for some reason I find myself deep in the trenches, unable [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=swimmom.wordpress.com&blog=1954859&post=306&subd=swimmom&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Adding fuel to the fire</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My 18 month old knows no boundaries.
Today, my son was playing with one of his trains.
Sophia walked up to him, grabbed the train and ran.
As he went to tackle her, I stopped them and gave George his train back and told Sophia, &#8220;No!&#8221;
As George walked away with his train, Sophia went and grabbed his shirt [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=swimmom.wordpress.com&blog=1954859&post=296&subd=swimmom&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Reality Check</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This morning, while my kids where watching their usual PBS shows, I announced that I needed to take a shower. My son startled me at what he said next.
&#8220;I need to take a shower. I&#8217;m all dirty and stinky.&#8221;  I said. (I had just done my usual morning workout)
My son looked at me and [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=swimmom.wordpress.com&blog=1954859&post=290&subd=swimmom&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>They really do think of everything..</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;and my awesome sister-in-law can find it.
If you read, my previous post, because he insists on standing, my son has a little trouble aiming at that low potty. For those of you that find yourself in the same messy situation, my sister in law just found this on Target.com

The Peter Potty Flushable Urinal.
Yes Kris, they [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=swimmom.wordpress.com&blog=1954859&post=285&subd=swimmom&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Sit or Stand</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am crossing my toes as I write you this (would do my fingers, but I have to type, right? anyway&#8230;.) in order to ward off all bad potty spirits, as I take time to gloat about the success of my son&#8217;s potty training attempts.
He is doing great!
He has stayed dry for 3 days, no [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=swimmom.wordpress.com&blog=1954859&post=283&subd=swimmom&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>

		<title>Potty on the Brain</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve got potty training on the brain. I know you probably don&#8217;t want to come to my site and read about potty training all the time, but I can&#8217;t help it, I&#8217;ve got &#8220;PB&#8221;, Potty Brain.
Potty training really tests not only your parenting skills but your determination, consistency and patience. I can&#8217;t wait to look [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=swimmom.wordpress.com&blog=1954859&post=280&subd=swimmom&ref=&feed=1" />]]></description>
